Ryan_Tango Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Been using Autobeams premium LED sidelights but after replacing them 4 times since purchasing my first set in late October 2016 obviously not worth the hassle and worry of them flickering after 1 month which has been the case with all the LED Bulbs from them. (Can't understand why they won't last more than a month) the last pair they sent out were just the standard bulbs but after just over a month they're flickering again. If anyone can recommend another set of LED Bulbs to me (not rubbish eBay ones please) or even a standard halogen bulb that has a crispy white light that'd be great. Thank you.

SenorC77 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Sorry for the slight hijack but do you need to replace the entire light fitting to use LED Bulbs or can you just swap them out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
